POLICE HUNT DRUG EVIL Join Cocaine Crusaders to Demand Tariff Check For the first time in its history the police department of this city lias today organized and begun uspe ( ial crusade to stamp out tin' alarm ing spread of lie co. aiae habit which is now recognized to tie one of the most serious of vice and crime throughout the country Every ef fort is being made to enforce the new state law against, the sale of excessive ((UHnllties of this drug for the users of tile ‘'dope fiend" rather than the doctor. Fully 7a per cent of the cocaine that passes through tills eity the police admit, finds its way to the victims of the deadly drug through an underground system df traffic which draws it principally from foreign sources. With no duty upon coca leaves, from which illicit purveyors extract a rough form of cocaine for their drug crazed customers, and only a low tariff imposed upon the quantities of the drug that are shipped here for secret distribution throughout the country, it is recognized that the chances for controlling the spread ing cocaine curses are today very slim, even under the most strict state laws and police surveilanee. Ur ging the recent, recommendation of tile American Health League for a prohibition tariff, internal revenue tax and other means which iwll re strict the use of cocaine, its substt stiites and derivatives, to medical put purposes, members of the medical profession, welfare workers, clergy men and the leading drug houses her are now looking to congress to safe guard every community in the country by thus shutting off Ibis chief ■‘'"inc< of 1 he Illegal supply of the noxious drug. Through restric tive lutvs can be and are being suc cessfully enforced by compelling the local manufacturers and wholesalers to keep records of their cocaine sales it lias been proven, unscrupulous re tailors to whom the American houses are perfectly free to obtain a limit less and iintracoablo supply from abroad. More cocaine is sold to drug vic tims from one of their supply stations in a single night than an ordinary purposes in a year, the police de clare. Medical men who are interes ing themselves In urging congress to give the homes of this country this hogh tariff protection from alu* rava ges of the drug assert that the com paratively small supply of cocaine neo essary for professional purposes will still be readily available for their uses . With a high tariff of 11.50 an ounce put upon the foreign eo caine haves It is proposed to de ciselvely cheek I lie cocaine plague and place it firmly under govern ment control by an internal reve nue lax. No power but that of the people can now Induce the law makers at Washington to include in the Aid rich Payne 1 >111 this necesssary clause for the protection of ewrj Ancrl. an family, the leader in this moveun nt declared today. If every philanthro pic * medical aud chari lion throughout the land will recom mend to Its members an immediate appeal to Senator Isodge, who is presenting this matter or to their representatives in congress, it is believed these efforts to combat tic curse of cocaine may succeed. The Telephone Girl Tlie following reference to the telephone girl though hardly up to the standard of Kinerson hits off the sit uation about as it is: “The telephone fciri sits still in her chair and listens to voices from everywhere. She hears all the gossip, she hears all the news, she knows who is hap knows all our joys, she knows every girl who is chasing the boys; she knows of our troubles, she knows of our strife, she knowe every man who who is mean to his wife; she knows knows every time we are out with the hoys, she bears the excuses each fellow employs; she know every woman who lias a dark past, sheknow man who is Inclined to be fast;” In fast, tlieres’ a secret ’neath each sau cy curl of that quiet demure look ing telephone girl. If the telephone girl would tell all that she knows, it would turn half our friends into bitterest foes; she would sow a small wind that would soon be a gale, engulf us in trouble and land us in jail; she could let go a story,— (which gaining in force; would cause half our wives to sue for di vorce; she could get all the churches mixed up in a fight and turn nil our days into sorrowing night; in fait she could keep the whole town in a stew, if she’d tell a tenth part of the. things that she knew. Now doesn’t It make your head whirl when you think what you owe to the telephone girl ?”—(Downs News, Kansas, ( Foley’s Iioney and Tar Is especial ly recommended for chronic throat and lung troubles and many suffer ers from bronchitis, asthma and con sumption have found comfort and re lief, by using Foley’s Honey and Tar. Kerr’s Pharmacy, MARKET LETTER From Our Regular Kansas City Stock Yard Correspondent h.m.-us City Stock Yards, June 7, 1909. -Cattle receipt.-* last week ag | Riegated 43.000 head hen-, heaviest work in several month* The pro I portion of grass cattle was fairly heavy for so early' in the summer, and t he run of grasset* is again heavy loth; . indicating that there will be araeiically no period this summer of w ry scant cattle receipts. The mar ket declined 10 lo 20 cents last week, least kiss on the best cattle, and the lop sales of yearlings at $7.00, and heavy steers at the same price, vvoio as good as any previous time this season. The run today is 14,000 head, containing a larger per centage of grass cattle than any pre vious day this summer. The fed grades and those fattened mostly on or entirely on grass have come to the parting of the ways today, fed cattle strong to 10 higher, medium and low grade cattle weak lo 10 lower. Condition of the meat trade is fairly healthy, and conservative marketing of corn fed cattle during June will no doubt result in the real ization of some high price levels later this month for good cattle. The ex tremely low price of hogs is an ele ment of profit that will encourage feeders to hold on. Top steers sold today at $6.90, and bulk of the decent fed steers bring $5,90 to $6.75. Cows and heifers contain fewer choice fed grades than a short time ago, cows ranging from $3.25 to $5.50, heifers $3.75 to $6.60, hulls $3.40 to $5 00, cal ves $4 .00 to $7.00. Stockers and feeder trade was heavier than usual hist week, without much net chonge in prices, market steady today, Stock ers at $3.75 lo $5.50, feeders $4.75 to $5,60. Ail hough the week closed Saturday with ti lower hog morket, the ten dency during the week was upward, and prices averaged highest of the year. Run was only 60,000 for the week, much below the normal for June, and the moderate supply of 10,000 head today Indicates that the expected heavy June receipts will fail to materialize, and that owners have not much to fear as to prices balance of this month. The market is strong to 5 higher today, top $7.55, weights above 200 pounds at $7.20 to $7.55, light hogs up to $7.35, pigs $5.75 to $6.75, when not sold right in without sorting. Sheep and iambs had a backset last, week, declining 25 to 50 cents for the week, but this is not surpris ing, as the top heavy conditions of the market naturally subjects it to some erratic moves. Run is 7,000 today, market firm, spring lambs today at $8.40, and clipped grass wethers from Texas at $6.00. proba tilv not quite the limit of prices in either class. Clipped lambs an worth up in $7.75,fat gnats $4.2.>. thin goats for the country $3.25 to $3.75. J. A. RICKART, L. S. Correspondent.
